Johannesburg – EFF leader Julius Malema has shocked agricultural experts, but deeply impressed fridge technicians, after declaring that “the majority of meat consumed in South Africa does not come from farms — it comes from refrigerators.”
Speaking at a rally packed with chanting supporters, Malema said South Africans have been misled for years into believing cows, chickens, and sheep are responsible for meat production, when in fact “the true source of meat is the refrigerator, comrades.”
“When you open the fridge, there is meat,” Malema explained.
“When you go to the farm, there is only grass and confusion.”
Fridges Exposed as the Real Farmers
According to Malema, refrigerators across the country have been “quietly producing meat without land reform, subsidies, or water licenses.” He accused Big Agriculture of stealing credit from hardworking appliances that have been chilling meat since the apartheid era.
“White monopoly capital wants you to believe the cow did the work,” he said.
“But the cow did not plug itself into Eskom.”
EFF Proposes Fridge Nationalisation
In response to this revelation, the EFF has reportedly drafted a policy to nationalise all refrigerators, freezers, and suspicious cooler boxes.
The plan includes:
State ownership of all double-door fridges
Expropriation of chest freezers without compensation
Free meat access for all citizens who open the fridge confidently
Farmers Confused, But Refrigerators Silent
Farmers have reacted with disbelief, while refrigerators have declined to comment, citing temperature sensitivity.
One Free State farmer said:
“I’ve been raising cattle for 30 years, but apparently I should’ve been raising fridges.”
Experts Respond
Food scientists attempted to intervene but gave up halfway through explaining supply chains.
One expert admitted:
“Technically, yes, the meat is in the fridge when people eat it. So… he’s not wrong, but he’s also not right.”
Malema Doubles Down
Malema ended his speech by promising a future where every household has a fridge “full of meat, not empty promises.”
“A fridge without meat is counter-revolutionary,” he concluded.
At the time of publishing, South Africans were reported to be staring into their fridges, hoping more meat would appear if they waited long enough.
